Easter Illinois Roster Mistakes (wrong roster used by 2k off of espn)

[Coachwf]

2K evidently used the bad roster for EIU that is posted on espn's site. They have guys w/ the wrong numbers and class...which made the OS Roster guys put in the wrong name for at least one guy. Here is what I see:

Freddie Perry #23 is actually Mike Robinson, 70 ovr, and the top player. Perry was a manager starting last year, but ended up on the roster after injuries. Don't see Perry on the 2k roster...should be #20.

Wrong Class:

#13 Willhite listed as JR, but is a Sr
#30 Brock listed as FR, but is a So
#54 Joliff listed as FR, but is a So
#45 Cisse listed as FR, but is a So

Here is the official EIU roster:

This scares me if ESPN is that wrong on other rosters and 2K used them.

Overall the rosters are pretty good man. Yahoo was used and it was very accurate.

Only a couple teams weren't that well done.

Overall, great job 2K. A great comparison will see how EA and MM stacks up.

Whats funny is that these guys were on the game last year, i'm freinds of Brock the day the game was released I lit a guy up with 45 with him against Georgia Tech.

Yahoo...you mean by 2K or the OS group? My worry is that 2K used inaccurate #'s/years off of espn, which could throw it off for anyone naming rosters.

I hope you're right. I know I see a lot of RS, Walkon mistakes, but that is to be expected. Ratings need a lot of work too, but that is kind of expected too. The ESPN/EIU mistakes scared me a bit at first glance though.

With him rated as bad as he is in this game???

Pretty familiar w/ his game from HS myself and, although he hasn't reached his potential at EIU yet, he is much better than a 57 ovr.

i think we all need to bear in mind that this was a first draft and done in record time...no one could expect it to be perfect - i'm just thankful that we have dedicated people here willing to give of their time to get this out as quickly as they did. i have no doubt that this file will continue to improve!

Ya, it was hillarious, i'm sure I pissed the guy off, after I hit the first few shots he actually was making the shots like he does in real life, his Jumper is deadly for a 6-7 kid. He actually was the backup pg if the pg got in foul trouble in High School. He has some range, but it was so funny at the end of the game he kept pausing or whatever, he couldn't believe it, I got I started like 17-18 from the field. I wish IL would of went after him, he's basically the same as tisdale just a little smaller, how are you kinda familar with his hs game. I bet he was embarrassed 2 days ago or whatever, he lost to a school about 45 minutes from where he's from, and they got killed by like 17.
